Article Synopsis
- The study investigated how exergaming and medical yoga affect various health outcomes in heart failure patients, focusing on exercise capacity, fatigue, shortness of breath, quality of life, depression, and anxiety.
- 104 participants were randomized into three groups: exergaming, medical yoga, and a control group, with no significant differences found between groups on most measures; however, exergaming improved physical health metrics while medical yoga enhanced emotional well-being.

Implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) are implanted in increasing numbers of patients with the aim of treating ventricular arrhythmias in high-risk patients and reducing their risk of dying. Individuals are also living longer with these devices. As a result, a greater number of patients with an ICD will deteriorate either with worsening cardiac failure, another non-cardiac condition or general frailty and will have a limited prognosis.
